PCMag has reviewed NEC 42XR4 42" plasma display panel and given a high mark as 4 out of 5. NEC 42XR4 is also rewarded the Editors' Choice award.

Pros

• Exceptional image quality
• Comprehensive display control options

 

Cons

• Remote lacks backlight. No extras bundled in
• Pricey

Bottomline

The NEC 42XR4 offers the best picture quality of any 42-inch plasma TV we have seen to date. But its premium price doesn't include many extras, the remote is near-useless in the dark, and to get the most out of it you'll need to have it professionally calibrated.
